Joiners Arms - Table reservation

Called in here one lunchtime when I found my usual Bloxham pub of choice, the Elephant Castle, absolutely chock-a-block. A pleasant enough venue, it has been tastefully refurbished but, for me, it lacks the character and the buzz of a traditional pub that you...get in the affore mentioned Elephant'. The food is grade about that at the Elephant' and priced accordingly, although it is still reasonable value for what it is. I thoroughly enjoyed the Roasted Belly of Pork which came with mustard mash, some very nice red cabbage, carrots and sugar-snap peas. Curiously there is a Theakstons sign on the pub and also an interesting Theaksons lamp to the rear but none of that Yorkshire brewery's ales...

I visited for an early evening dinner and was pleasantly surprised by the wide variety on offer. I ordered their Steak Ale pie which was absolutely delicious and definitely a hearty meal to fulfil my hungry appetite. The waitress Dawn was delightful and upon...clearing my empty plate offered me a choice of deserts, highly recommending the Eton Mess Sundae which was equally as delicious. I’m home for a nap know and will most definitely be returning. Stars.

As regular diners over many years we see the standard of cooking rise and fall a little as staff change. Currently the newish team is really on the ball. The Sunday lunch was excellent in every ingredient and was a lovely fair priced meal. The...staff, as always, were lovely.

The joiners arims is typical of an Engish country pub, with a good atmosphere, a lovely choice of ales and beers, and good food on offer. The staff seemed friendly, and it was a nice spot to refresh after a long day!
